The employee of the plant who, in the event of the death/incapacitation of all other employees in the entire plant, would become a manager before Homer. The Rod possibly went on to a career in the United States space program after Homer unintentionally lodged the Rod in the shuttle door, closing it and allowing Homer and the other astronauts a safe return to Earth. The Rod of course got all the credit. The Rod went on to be featured on the cover of Time magazine with the caption 'In Rod We Trust!'. It was also given the main seat in the subsequent parade, much to Homer's annoyance, presumably because he had been upstaged yet again by the Rod. Homer then went on to turn off the video of the parade, much to the chagrin of Bart and Lisa, proclaiming "they were about to show a close-up of the Rod."
